Hi Iresha, The deliverables to this project would be, 1. A jason configuration for replacing current RXT configuration model 2. Plug that model to the existing UI generator model (This should be refactor or replace our old UI generator) 3. Plug that model to the existing Governance API 4. Implementing nested RXT support - Currently we only allow to have basic data support in field. But we need to improve this to define another datatype inside a datatype. I'll explain this in detail later.
